Vascular treatment and methods include a plurality of self-expanding bulbs and a hypotube including interspersed patterns of longitudinally spaced rows of kerfs. Joints between woven structures and hypotubes include solder. Woven structures include patterns of radiopaque filaments measureable under x-ray. Structures are heat treated to include at least shapes at different temperatures. A catheter includes a hypotube including interspersed patterns of longitudinally spaced rows of kerfs. Heat treating systems include a detachable flange. Laser cutting systems include a fluid flow system.

An intrasaccular flow diverter includes a wire structure (e.g., a braided wire or a laser-cut hypotube), a thin-film mesh placed over the wire structure, and crimps fixing the thin-film mesh to the wire structure at each crimp. The wire structure and the thin-film mesh between adjacent crimps are expanded radially to form thin-film covered spheroid structures. When deployed in an aneurysm, the spheroid structures may volumetrically fill the aneurysm sac. An intrasaccular flow diverter with an umbrella structure includes a wire structure with a plurality of crimps along the wire structure, and a thin-film covered umbrella structure at one end of the wire structure. The wire structure between adjacent crimps is expanded radially to form a spheroid structure. When deployed in an aneurysm, the thin-film covered umbrella structure may cover the aneurysm neck.

A treatment system includes an insert that is resiliently deflectable. The tip portion of the insert can be configured to be coupled to the trailing portion of an implant. A guide tube having an internal lumen is configured to permit passage of the tip portion and the body portion of the insert through a guide tube. The guide tube can have a length that is less than that of the insert. Treatment systems include a plurality of inserts, each insert differing from in at least one of length, diameter, and curvature. Treating a patient can include sizing a fistula using an insert.

An occlusive device includes a frame element having a distal end and a proximal end, and a delivery configuration and a deployed configuration. The occlusive device also includes an occlusive face having a peripheral edge, where the occlusive face positioned toward the proximal end of the frame element. The occlusive device also includes at least one anchor positioned at the peripheral edge of the occlusive face, where the at least one anchor extends at an acute angle to the peripheral edge of the occlusive face.

A device (1, 30, 40, 50, 60) for denuding a vein comprises a vein denuding head (3) operatively attached to an elongated catheter member (2) and configured for transluminal delivery and deployment in the vein. The vein denuding head comprises a helical coil (4) that is self-adjustable from an uncoiled delivery configuration suitable for transluminal delivery within the catheter member and a coiled deployed configuration having a diameter greater than the vein to be denuded that circumferentially engages an internal lumen of the vein when deployed. The helical coil has an abrasive surface configured to circumferentially denude the internal lumen of the vein when the coil is moved axially along the body lumen in the coiled configuration. The helical coil may be a single helical coil element.

The present disclosure relates to devices and methods for delivery of a ferrofluid to a targeted treatment site, such as delivery of a ferroadhesive to a pathological fistula to occlude the fistula. A device includes a catheter having a lumen and a distal opening. A hollow solenoid is coupled to a distal section of the catheter, and a hollow core of the solenoid allows passage of a ferrofluid through the catheter and through the hollow core so that it may exit past the distal end of the hollow solenoid. The solenoid may be selectively actuated to maintain or control the position of the delivered ferrofluid.

A surgical tool for use in the treatment of anal fistulas includes an elongate, flexible probe having a channel running there through; a seton attached to a proximal end of the probe; and a wire located within the channel, and movable along the channel; wherein: the probe has a first stiffness and the wire has a second stiffness, the first stiffness being less than the second stiffness.

In certain systems disclosed herein, one or more of a first vascular access port and a second vascular access port can be selected by a customer. Each of the first and second vascular access ports can be implanted subcutaneously within a patient, and each can include a base configured to be attached to a vessel, a body that extends away from the base, and a guidance passageway that extends through the body and the base and includes a funnel region. A maximum height defined by the base and body of the second vascular access port can be greater than a maximum height defined by the base and body of the first vascular access port.
